Back-to-Back: Artist-led Tours of Nina Chanel Abney: Royal Flush at CAAM and ICA LA
Friday, January 18, 2019
01:00 PM – 05:00 PM
On the closing weekend of Nina Chanel Abney: Royal Flush, LA artists Lili Bernard and Chelle Barbour offer their insights in tours at both CAAM and the ICA LA. The program begins at 1:00 pm with Bernard at CAAM, and is followed by a 3:00 pm tour at the ICA LA, culminating in a light reception. Abney's work refers to diverse subjects such as pop culture, world events, and art history through vibrant and provocative compositions. Artists Bernard and Barbour examine how those themes relate to American society, including Abney's references to race, sexuality, celebrity culture, and police brutality.
ICA LA is located at 1717 E 7th Street, Los Angeles 90021.
